Thread: FS9 Enhancement

  1. #1

    FS9 Enhancement

    Can anyone recomend a good water replacement addon? Also, maybe some replacement trees that don't shimmer. I've recently reinstalled FS9 after using FSX for the last year, and the water and trees just don't do it for me anymore. Anything else you can think of to enhance FS9 would be appreciated.

    I am using Real Environment Pro water and Treegen by Feng Zhu with the oceanheightfield from waters.zip at avsim.com and a custom envmap... all freeware.
    further, I am using Ground Environment Pro ground textures for a finishing touch of excellence, but those are payware...

    Im using Zinertek http://www.zinertek.com/flightsimulator.html water (ivetried other water products and this is the best so far IMO)and Treegen by Feng Zhu - lot of people have mistaken my FS9 screenshots as FSX screenshots - highly recommend both products.

    I have to agree with Naki, the Zinertek water is the best I've ever tried. Treegen is great too!

    But Zinertek cost money and I just don't spend any money any more on FS9. I use REP and I have no complaints, even the Zinertek inland water is way too blue, REP has it brown, like it ought to be, and a good blend for coastal sounds and ocean water.

    I'm running Ed Truhan's FS 2002 Conifer's tree package with Bill Lyons water and Ground Environment Pro for ground textures...

    I use a set of reduced size cloud textures I found at avsim. I prefer fps over super detailed clouds.

    I use a combination of Bill Lyons' and Peter Wilding's water,
    Gerrish Gray's trees, and alternative clouds, it's all very subjective of course, depending on where you live in the world and what the sea/sky/trees look like to you

    ps at the moment I only have one reason to go fsx, Dave Garwoods' Beaufighter...(thinks...its' about time someone converted it for cfs2/fs2004)
